As a reminder, this is part of the first of 3 sets:
H1 - The Hobbit (300 cards, 110C 100U 90R)
H2 - The Battle of the Five Armies (200 cards, 70C 70U 60R)
H3 - The White Council (200 cards, 70C 70U 60R)
And it’s more or less complete, I just need the approval of the talented DCers of the cobracards forum!
Here is a (very brief) summary of the block mechanics featured in the first set:
Terror X (Each time this character is assigned to skirmish an opponent’s character, they may make that opponent exert X of their characters.)
Winged (This character can only take 1 wound per phase, regardless of its source.)
Locked - (A card that is Locked has blank game text, unless it is Unlocked. An ability or keyword that is Locked is nonexistent unless it is Unlocked.)
Unlocked - (A card can only be Unlocked if a card allows it to be. A card with no Locked text cannot be Unlocked.)
A seriously detailed description of the last two can be found at this link: http://lotrtcgdb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=4434 (below the  cards)
Here’s the culture break down, and clicking on finished cultures will take you to their card lists.

Okay, but a little bland when you have two guys that do the exact same thing.

He’s okay.

In hindsight, the other guys above should probably require spotting another Orc (or at least another card), lest they be ridiculous cycling splash minions. As for THIS guy, I think two cards is a bit good, even considering the cost. Require spotting a companion with low resistance or an exhausted companion or a certain number or burdens or threats or something to draw the second card.

Again, kinda bland when compared to the other guy, but okay.

This minion’s twilight cost is -1 for each condition you can spot.
While at an underground site, each time you play an possession (except a mount), you may draw a card.

Put a cap on that cost reduction, but he’s okay otherwise. |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you. |

Good tip. Take it from my experience, Thran: reviews are unpredictable. Sometimes you’ll get three within minutes of posting. Other times, it can take hours to get just one. There doesn’t seem to be any real pattern, except you can count on SoP to show up and review any and everything in sight somewhere between 2:00 and 3:00 EST. Although look: today he’s in here before noon! It’s a world gone mad. 
The more cards you post, the less likely you’re going to get lots of reviews, in general. That’s why I usually post 2 or 3 at a time, and 4 or so at the most (unless I have really good reason to go higher). You just turn people off if they look and see lots of cards.
Anyway, uh, not sure why I felt compelled to say all that, but there it is. |

Thanks, Dain - you didn’t have to review the first lot of cards! I try not to post more than 5, but sometimes, like with the guys above, when the texts are basically the same I post more.
And the Goblin Tunneller is a LOT better than Goblin runner when it comes to ’splashability’, but I’ve made a lot of changes.
These are the ones I changed (to make your lives easier):
Goblin Guard
Minion • Orc
Str: 7
Vit: 1
Sit: 4
When you play this minion, you may spot another Orc and discard a Shadow card from hand to draw 2 cards.
’Where is it?’ they cried.
H1 R 162
Goblin Watchman
Minion • Orc
Str: 6
Vit: 1
Sit: 4
When you play this minion, you may spot another Orc and 6 companions to draw 2 cards.
’We found them sheltering in our Front Porch.’
H1 R 176
Goblin Lookout
Minion • Orc
Str: 6
Vit: 1
Sit: 4
When you play this minion, you may spot an condition borne by a companion to take an event into hand from your discard pile.
They saw him sooner than he saw them.
H1 R 165
• Darkness
Condition • Support Area
Each time you play an event at an underground site, you may draw a card.
Skirmish: Draw a card for each companion assigned to skirmish an Orc. Discard this condition.
It was deep, deep, dark, such as only goblins that have taken to living in the heart of the mountains can see through.
H1 R 156
Goblin Tunneller
Minion • Orc
Str: 5
Vit: 1
Sit: 4
To play, spot an card.
When you play this minion at an underground site, you may remove to draw a card.
They can tunnel and mine as well as any but the most skilled dwarves, when they take the trouble.
H1 C 175
Goblin Chanter
Minion • Orc
Str: 7
Vit: 1
Sit: 4
To play, spot an card.
When you play this minion at an underground site, you may spot an exhausted companion to draw a card.
’Clap! Snap! the black crack! / Grip, grab! Pinch, nab! / And down down to Goblin-town / You go, my lad!’
H1 C 161

I’m still a little umfortable with this one, but since it relies on the FP having a certain type of fellowship, I guess it’s okay.

Not sure what exactly you meant, but the text is missing SOMETHING right now, probably between "you may" and "borne".
The rest look good. |
